Hey
I upgraded to 4.0.4 LRK recently and ive been finding that Wifi reception is pretty bad since this update.
Even when im sitting in the same room as the router im only getting 1 or 2 bars of Wifi reception whereas previously i would get full reception.
I also used to get strong Wifi reception upstairs in my house but now i get 1 bar at most and the phone regularly disconnects from Wifi.
Any solutions???

Are you still on Stock Kernel?
I've had issues with Wi-Fi on a couple of custom kernels previously..
However - I am running Stock ICS 4.0.4 (LRK) with SpeedMod K3-11 (link in my sig) and I have no issues with my Wi-Fi connectivity...
Im on speedmod 3-11 kernel as well. Im sitting literally 2 metres away from the router right now and i only have 2 bars of wifi reception.
Is there anything i can do to sort this issue?

well, I'm using LRG with speed mod 3-9.. no issues itself on wifi.
try using speed mod 9 bud and see also if you can wipe dalvik cache. You may also wanna try downloading wifi fixer in google play and see if it fixes your wifi connection.
Cheers!
Bro the 4.0.4 versions are really annoying me too....they are full of problem like wifi and battery drain...i tried alkost everything but these problem never gone....specially wifi is too bad

I also have problems with GPS. However it also seems my compass is not exactly correct and unstable. There seems to be some correlation. How accurate is your compass?

Haven't tested compass yet.
Progress with gps testing:
Tried several radios without wiping the cache first (no help with gps, wifi&data ok)
Now using nexus radio kb3, seems to work , have to test some more
KB3 (and KF1) also fixed the "always roaming" problem.
To get kb3 to function, had to (wipe cache +)flash kf1 first, reboot, (wipe cache+) flash kb3
At this point, the key for successful gps is to wipe cache prior flashing radio (modem)
Hi, tried your way also but no luck so far. Still think that the compass is of influence. Sometimes GPS works and then suddenly compass becomes unstable and is deviating and at the same time the GPS looses fix but still has satellites in view. I am getting desperate. will try some more.
Btw I am on titanium rom

ok, too bad . I'm not totally satisfied in the way things work just now but at least i can drive with waze on for 10km (the longest i drove today). Tomorrow more test while driving to the cottage almost 300km away.
I have had it working on some older versions of ics roms, but really don't want to go back there..

Try JVK,JVT,JW4,JVU modems (from Rom Manager it's easy)
Toivottavasti joku noista toimii kunnol myös gps:s!
Muute, lisää mut google talkis [email protected]

Tried. Only with some luck.. GPS gets fix, keeps it for a while then loses fix and doesn't seem to get it back. Sigh.
Think I'm going totally stock or Darky's and test there. And then if things work like they used to, come back to ICS roms.

I'm getting good results with JVT. GPS locks pretty well( tested on bus yesterday).

All modems worked as badly.
Then I changed kernel to semaphore and was able to drive 160 km with only few times losing fix.
More testing needed though..

nice, try also glitch kernel=)
Hi!
I had tried different modems but none of them worked so the only solution I found was to open up my SGS and then do some hardware fixes....had to bend the connection "wire" of GPS. Now the contact between GPS and antenna is good, so this means I get the satellite lock in few second, even indoors!
Just search Google or Youtube and you will find how to do it.
Cleared all GPS stuff with GPS aids (yes I payed 2€ for it but was getting desperate)
and now it has been working just great for about 4 days.
I also flashed another ROM prior to clearing, and it (gps) worked ok after the flash. I'm not sure which or both did the trick but now it's working..
I'm currently on slim ICS and my modem is JW4.

GPS AIDS is a great app to improve your signal.in settings u can NTP server,its usually set to world or north America.change to your region.this will improve your signal significantly.
Hi all,
Strange issue here. My GPS performance has always been great, but a couple of weeks ago it has suddenly bexomevunusable. Google navigation looses my position constantly and is extremely inaccurate. I downloaded GPS test and my accuracy is never below 150 feet or so.
I have tried factory resetting the phone and even tried installing rocket rom, no change.
Any ideas?

what rom u on?
check your kernel version.. lpt is known to be stable .. different rom use different kernel.. could be your kernel issue
Thanks for the responses, I first had issues under LPY, the thing is...I had been running it for over a month no issues, the GPS just started acting up one day.
Now I'm on the latest rocket rom, which uses a different kernel. So I'm having the issue with two different kernels.

Hi All,
I am using galaxy note with ICS 4.0.4 and using Rocket Rom V12 currently. I am facing a strange issue in which wi-fi disconnects in regular interval. This interval is not fixed. Even while using internet, Wi-fi gets disconnected. I have checked wifi settings as well where in I have kept wi-fi to be always available.
Does anybody have idea of what could be the cause of this problem???
Thanks & Regards,
Neeraj Tati.
Try reconfiguring your wireless router to broadcast only 11b/g instead of 11b/g/n. This solved a similar issue I had, only it was on Rocket ROM v11. I suppose buying a new router could have also helped but I didn't feel like buying routers so I tried anything possible.

I changed the router configurations from 11b/g/n to 11b/g last night. So far it seems to be working. Wifi didnot disconnect till now.
Gotta test it for 1 more day. But yeah ur suggestion worked. I appreciate ur help.
Thanks mate. :thumbup:

Glad to be of help, that issue drove me crazy and there were no useful suggestions anywhere on the net.
Also, I was thinking that another shrun solution could be to flash hydracore 4.3 which is used in v11 instead of notecore 14 which comes with RR v12.
So i have got one more alternative to get rid of this problem.
Ur previous one resolved d prob.. So will stick to that as of now.
Will try it in future if needed.
Well thanks again. Keep it up. Have a nice day.

The static ip on phone and dhcp on router is already present. Well thanks for suggesting. Changing from 11 b/g/n to 11b/g solved my prob.

Allright, so i've searched the entire web and cannot for the life of it, find any solution on why my wifi connection is constantly dropping. It doesn't happen when i surf and load small webpages like xda, but only the big ones. It constantly happens when i try to download files, like trying to update an app from google play or updating my software. It just stops then i have to try again, but no progress is made since it keeps disconnecting all the time! It's really starting to annoy me cause i've had this issue since i got the phone. I'm thinking of sending it back if I can't find a solution soon.
Can anybody tell me what I can do to fix this? I'm currently on Cyanogenmod 10.
Try Changing ur wireless channel to transmit only b/g

this rom. cm10
If it's happened on all roms under different networks, I'd suggest its hardware.

Which kernel? Changing to hydracore might help.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Had anyone else had this issue? I currently have zues 6.4 installed, with diana kernel (the extra one that's offered on his blog I think). Sometimes I will pull my phone out of my pocket and have zero connectivity, i will have to reboot my phone to get a network connection back. Is there a way to prevent this?
